Lacoste Golf Apparel and Casual Shoes

Rene Lacoste was one of the top tennis players of his time who's nickname became an internationally recognized symbol as soon as it was marketed for retail.

"I was nicknamed "the Alligator" by the American press, after I made a bet with the Captain of the French Davis Cup Team concerning a suitcase made from crocodile skin. He promised to buy it for me if I won a very important match for our team. The public must have been fond of this nickname which conveyed the tenacity I displayed on the tennis courts, never letting go of my prey! So my friend Robert George drew a 'crocodile', which I then had embroidered on the blazer I wore on the courts."

The Lacoste Crocodile is now a world-renowned icon in the fashion industry and is almost instantly recognized anywhere it is placed. Lacoste golf apparel combines classic golf style with high quality fabrics so you get a simple, sophisticated and chic look that is great for on and off the golf course.
